Navigate Chapter 3 of Gothic 1 Remake, focusing on the Eye of Innos. This guide covers quests, new threats in Khorinis, and key interactions with characters like Xardas and Lord Hagen.
Chapter 3 of Gothic 1 Remake, titled 'The Eye of Innos,' begins immediately after entering the pass from the valley of mines, provided you've completed 'Diggers and Ore' and possess the letter for Lord Hagen. This chapter sees a significant return to Khorinis, where you'll find the land changed with new creatures like dragon snappers, wargs, skeletons, and zombies, alongside the omnipresent Seekers.
It's recommended to explore Onar's Farm & Land for any available quests before heading to Xardas. Use your teleport rune to reach him, then return to Khorinis to address the new events. If you were thorough in Chapter 2, you should be well-equipped, with an average player level of 20-25 being ideal.
C3.1 - XARDAS' TOWER, THE VALLEY, AND ROAD TO KHORINIS
Teleporting to Xardas places you outside his tower. Ascend and speak with him to gain insights into the Seekers and current events before descending to Khorinis. Be aware of wargs and Seekers on the road, and note that the bandit you previously spared has met his end. Lobart's farm also has developments, so a visit is in order.
C3.1.S1 SIDEQUEST: Report From the Mines
Report your findings from the valley of mines, including details about the dragons and the state of the paladins, to Xardas for +150 XP.
C3.1.S2 SIDEQUEST: Proof of the Dragons
Mention your possession of Garond's letter to Lord Hagen. Xardas will advise you to deliver it promptly to gain access to the Eye of Innos, rewarding you with another +150 XP.
C3.1.Q1 QUEST: Healing for Hilda
Hilda has fallen ill due to the Seekers' presence. Lobart is concerned and seeks help. Hilda, found sleeping in a side room, will tell you she usually gets medicine from Vatras but is too weak to travel. Speak to Vatras in the city, mention Hilda's need for medicine, and he will provide a special potion. This quest yields +300 XP and 50 gold.
C3.1.Q2 MERCENARY QUEST: Maleth's Walking Stick
As a mercenary, speak to Maleth, who is grumpy after getting drunk on Vino's moonshine and losing his walking stick. Retrieve the stick from the stone circle behind Lobart's Farm, where you previously found King's Sorrel. A Shadowbeast now lurks there; defeat it and collect the stick, identifiable by an 'M' carved on the hilt. Returning the stick to Maleth grants +400 XP. He will then reveal information about bandits carrying gold bags who headed into a ravine. Follow the forest path into the ravine (refer to C1.1.P5) to find a cave inhabited by five bandits (three worth 180 XP, two worth 80 XP) and their 'Rogue Leader' (300 XP). The leader carries a 'Bag full of gold!' containing 300 gold.
C3.2 - CITY OF KHORINIS
Upon returning to Khorinis, you'll find the town in turmoil over Lothar's murder and the presence of mercenaries. Speak to everyone to catch up on events and complete any lingering quests from Chapter 2, such as 'Fernando's Business' and 'Snapper Claws.'
C3.2.P1 POINT OF INTEREST: Meeting with Lord Hagen
Go to the town hall and deliver Garond's letter to Lord Hagen, explaining the situation in the valley. Hagen will grant you access to the monastery with a letter for Pyrokar and provide a 'Harbour City' teleport rune. If you know about Bennet's imprisonment, you can discuss it with Hagen, who will mention Cornelius, a witness on the first floor of the town hall.
C3.2.Q1 QUEST: Diego's Gold
Diego is now outside Matteo's Store by Rupert and will initiate a conversation. He is involved in a lucrative, albeit shady, business in Khorinis and wants back in on the action. As Diego is not a citizen, he...
